Dude, There Went Your Recession?
Matt Drudge links to a Yahoo! article noting that after only four consecutive quarters of negative growth, we’ve finally had one whole quarter in which growth was positive. As is his wont, Drudge
throws in a misleading headline of his own that goes far beyond anything stated in the linked article. In this case, the heading is “Economy grows in Q3, unofficially ends recession…” Apparently, for Drudge, it takes two consecutive quarters of recession before the recession really counts as a recession, but only one consecutive quarter of non-recession to end it. Really?
I hereby declare Matt Drudge an idiot. Unofficially, of course.
